Our political processes, more like Parkinson's Law..." @Kasparov63 is one of the sanest and wisest voices online. Here's his latest column in the Economist (paywalled unfortunately). [BTW.

Having people together is enormously important for building the core of an organization. Culture is not built remotely. Yes, you can have lots of jobs done off-location/out-of-office but that also means those jobs are vulnerable to commoditization. If the location of the job can be anywhere then it will be anywhere -- no guarantee it will be in the US. …see more

Continuing media disruption means that each company needs to learn how to produce and distribute their stories. If you aren't seen — you don't exist. Learn media skills or disappear. #Simple #Reality
